so then yet another year has gone by and I was wondering what are your most recomended movies of 2011? Preferably small easy-to-miss productions that you feel people should pay more attention to?

And while we're at it, what would your worst movies be?

 

For me... ummm well I can't really say that I've seen anything that would get the "unmissable" status. The worst one would definately be The Tree Of Life.... maaaaan that was long and boooring!!! I don't know whoever told Terence Malick he could direct, every single movie by him bored me out of my skull!!

I actually fell asleep during tree of life.

I know I had had a lot to drink but still, I can't remember the last time I fell asleep during a movie.

That was just dull.

 

Best? Probably the Perfect Host but it's not the best movie ever just that this year has been a shit year.

2011 was pretty forgettable. Nothing comes to memory when I try to think of movies I saw in the theater. I watch a lot of movies, but not necessarily new releases.

 

I did see Sucker Punch, and thought it was fun, but nothing super. Guess I didn't realize it came out in 2011.

2011 was pretty forgettable.

 

I guess I didn't miss out on anything then, I just looked through some lists on IMDB and I only remember seeing one of them, that being Tintin... I though it was ok, I was entertained, but it was not a great movie either... I will just skip 2011 movies and move right on I guess...

I haven't watched a lot of movies from 2011, but I would definitely recommend Drive. Everyone should see that one. Really !!

 

I also liked Rise of the Planet of the Apes, Attack the Block and Source Code.

 

I'll try to watch Warrior, Another Earth and 50/50 soon, as I have high hopes for those.

The only one that comes in my mind now is "The skin i live in" of Almodobar. A really nice movie, freaking out but nice.

 

There still some to see, so i'll be back here...

I'm only counting movies which opened (or should have opened) in Danish cinemas in 2011.

2011 was a pretty weird year, as I did not see a single 6/6-movie. There were a couple of close contenders though.

 

My best of 2011-list looks as follows:

Best?

 

Maybe Warrior or Thor

 

 

I would add what i liked/loved this year too:

Age of Heroes, Super 8, Limitless, Battle LA, Captain America, Rise of the Planet of the Apes, Real Steel, Transformers 3, Fast Five, Go-ji-jeon (The Front Line), Mission Impossible - Ghost Protocol, Mechanic, Paul...

 

 

Worst? Not many because i check trailers or rates on IMDB before watching. I though Final Destination 5 and Wrong Turn 4 should great but they are shitty boring, thats the worst one i watched.
